Would suit her fine.
The neck pickup in the same color as the rest of the bass is a nice touch i.m.h.o..

I have to locate all of the BT parts....I also may have to have that pickup rewound as I am not sure yet if it works or not....

Nice to meet you, purple 4001.
A Strat-style pickup on a Rickenbacker bass??? Now I'm really upset!

...who owns a rock excavating company, perhaps too many rock have hit his head?
At least, he didn't add more tuners to turn it into a "4800".

Currently, the bass is in the hands of the surgeon to repair the separation of the neck/fingerboard...I pulled the rods last night and it will be back in my hands soon....in the meantime, The Professor is fixing up some pickups for me and I will be doing a complete rewire when it returns...It is now sporting some new black hipshot tuners and I am scouting for a black bridge/tailpiece...so it will be a purpleglo BT bass.....Sound like fun?
